Cinnamon Velifushi Maldives
Overview
Renowned for its outstanding hospitality, this small yet beautiful island hotel prides itself on its attention to detail and incredible marine life. The island is located in the Vaavu Atoll, and is close by to wonderful diving sites. Elusive nurse shark swim nearby too - they are harmless to humans and it’s a real treat to be able to see them up close. As there is minimal interference from planes and boats, the island is blessed with beautiful marine life.
The accommodation is minimalist and evokes a lovely island feel. Boasting fabulous views of the beach and ocean, they offer the perfect space to relax and enjoy Maldivian barefoot luxury. We especially love the overwater villas that jut out over the lagoon in the shape of a stingray.
The hotel is stylish and laidback, yet there are plenty of great activities for couples and families alike. Enjoy an unforgettable dolphin watching cruise on a traditional Dhoni, choose from a variety of water sports, and take part in fun indoor and outdoor activities.
Vah, the main restaurant, is a lovely place to enjoy delicious meals throughout the day, whilst Marlin offers sumptuous seafood and romantic vibes for lunch and dinner. The island may be quiet, but if you’re hoping for a night of partying, Hama Rhythmic Bar is the place to be. The bar is soundproof, so you won’t disturb other guests while you enjoy a cocktail or two.
